    If the gantry racks then it is that small a movement I don't care. I disconnected one side and tried to push it, I could feel no movement but I did not use a dial indicator.
    The AM882's have tripped on stall but only when I've tried to get too much speed/acceleration from the machine, when tuned to sensible values they do not trip.
    I don't know if they tripped due to racking or something else.
    I am still using only one homing switch on the X axis and that is working fine for me, your machine (silyavski) will be stiffer then mine I imagine so it should work for you too.
    If anyone has doubts they should probably use one motor and connect the two ball screws with belts.

    Spelling mistakes are not intentional, I only seem to see them some time after I've posted
